Reviews

[Christopher Watterson · Rating 4 out of 5]

Provides a good overview of the IS-LM-FX model, while also being a suitable primer for fundamental international macro concepts.

[Rizwan · Rating 4 out of 5]

I initially did not think it was as good.
But it picked up from there. It approaches the topics from a broader perspective and it was pretty good at dealing with both the theory and practical applications and and real world problems and situations.

[Megan Fulmes · Rating 4 out of 5]

Well written with good examples. Much more concise and to the point with explanations of some key topics (ex. Fisher Effect) than other economics textbooks that I have used.

This is a pretty good textbook, if only my professor taught better.
